Working on the bunny gun's extractor. The extractor appears to be low carbon casehardened steel, and fairly complex as it is adjustable to extract or eject with force. Fairly complex and don't want to have to mill one out from scratch.:X
It appears that I only need about 0.12 inches extended up into the chamber to function. My thought is to inlet a piece of cold rolled steel into a square groove cut into the extractor, then shape it. It will have about 20X the surface area of the extension added.
Now I have 50/50, 60/40 and 63/37 tin and lead solders. Plus I have some 95/5 tin and antimony solder. My Internet search says the the 95/5 is “much stronger” than the tin/lead and “wets” better.
Do I need to find flux for the 95/5? With that much bonding area, will it hold?
Ideas, experience and thoughts very much appreciated. :cool:
